Why Join NJFA?
If you are interested in the future of the forests of New Jersey, you need to join NJFA.
The NJFA is the only state-wide organization that advocates scientifically and ecologically sound management of woodlands to promote resilient and sustainable public and private forests, and social, economic and environmental benefits to private landowners and to the forest community. By joining NJFA, you will be part of an organization that is working to assure our forests are managed and protected.
If you are a woodland owner, you need to join the NJFA.
You will be particularly interested in our efforts in tracking, monitoring and providing input on legislation and rulemaking affecting NJ’s forests and landowners, providing webinars (and a YouTube channel) on a range of topics including sustainable, resilient forest management, forest challenges (including diseases, invasive plants and insects, deer, storms and wildfires), farmland assessment, woodland management and forest stewardship, Federal cost reimbursement programs, forestland conservation/preservation programs, and estate planning, and providing opportunities to visit public and private forests; of course, you will want to attend our Annual Meeting.
Founded in 1975, the NJFA is the only statewide organization supporting the sustainability and resiliency of NJ’s public and private forests through forestry education, and science-based forest management.
The NJFA hosts several programs, including Backyard Forestry in 90 Minutes, Walk-in-the-Woods, Tree Planting, and NJ Woodland Stewards, tracks, monitors, and provides input on legislation and rulemaking affecting NJ’s forests and woodland owners, produces member newsletters, collaborates with conservation and outdoor organizations, governmental units, and educational institutions, and hosts an annual meeting. The NJFA is the go-to resource for legislators, agencies and other non-profits seeking comments on legislation and activities affecting NJ’s forests, and works jointly with public and private conservation groups.
The NJFA is the essential advocate for woodland owners, conservationists and others interested in maintaining New Jersey’s forests.
If you value New Jersey’s forests – whether or not you are a landowner – and want to support our efforts, we welcome you to join the NJFA, participate in our activities and programs or donate (or all three!).
